The folk song “Broomfield Hill”. It’s about a witchy woman who drugs her suitor to stop him taking her virginity.

One of my favorites for this time of year is “Little Red Riding Hood” by Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs. Not to mention another Tom Jones classic: “Daughter Of Darkness”.
And speaking of Tom Jones: a guy goes to the doctor and says, “Every time I pass the place I grew up I sing ‘The Green Green Grass of Home’ and every time I pass a cat I sing ‘What’s New Pussycat?'”
The doctor says, “It sounds like you’ve got Tom Jones syndrome.”
The guy says, “I’ve never heard of that. Is it rare?”
“It’s not unusual.”

what a great collection of songs; I just heard Evil Woman on the radio today. I’ve always enjoyed Year of the Cat, but I guess I never listened to the lyrics too closely since I’m not sure how it fits in with your other songs. I’m looking forward to giving a few of these songs a listen later today.

You need to listen to the lyrics of the Year of The Cat. But beyond that. also the meaning of the song. Al Stewart said it was about a busy businessman who is on a flight to an exotic location when his plane makes an unexpected stop. He leaves and encounters a beautiful woman.
He then misses the next flight and there won’t be another for a considerable time. He realises on meeting this “Mysterious Woman” his life is profoundly changed. This time coincides with the Astrological Year of the Cat. It’s all about fate and chance and the type of events that would lead us to a whole new way of life.
“By the blue tiled walls near the market stalls
There’s a hidden door she leads you to
These days, she says, I feel my life
Just like a river running through
The year of the cat
While she looks at you so cooly
And her eyes shine like the moon in the sea
She comes in incense and patchouli
So you take her, to find what’s waiting inside
The year of the cat”
So Year of the Cat fits because it’s about a man’s encounter with a very Mysterious woman who totally captivates him. In The Year of The Cat.
